My Burning Passion for Coffee

Did you know that coffee has been around for over than 1,500 years?!? Have you ever thought of how people discovered the beverage? Imagine yourself on the high Ethiopian planes where coffee first grew. Lightning strikes a tree filled with coffee cherries. A rich, smoky perfume rises from the burning shrub and grabs your attention. Or maybe you've plucked some of those ripe, red cherries to enjoy their tantalizing sweet pulp, then tossed the seeds into a campfire. You can't believe the aroma that bursts forth!

    Ive been drinking black coffee ever since I was two years old (In Africa they would give the mothers coffee with cream and suger and the kids black bitter coffee) I have a cup every morning at breakfast and every night after dinner!
     

But my favorite part of the beverage, even more than the flavor, is the social aspect of it! I go out for coffee with my friends at least once a week. I love the talk that comes with it! I also love sitting around my living room with company or family and talking and laughing with a mug in my hand!


I also LOVE snuggling up with a blanket, a great book, and a strong cup of coffee!


















I pretty much spend all my money on Starbucks (not totally proud of that fact) Its my favorite place ever!

I went to Seattle for 4 days and drank a starbucks for
my meals, and then some!
